So i have an evo 9 mr console with a 5 speed transmission, does the oem 5 speed shift boot fit the mr console? Other then having a shift boot custom made, how can this problem be fixed

 

bump....wondering the same thing.

 

I'm in search of an MR shifter console and am offering my 5spd one up for trade. I've already did some research and it does work with some light modification on my end. As for the GSR shifter console in the MR, if you have the 5spd conversion it will work.

 

well the question still remains for people with the mr console and a 5 speed trans
what do you do if you want a proper fitting shift boot? because the 6 speed shift boot leaves a large gap because theirs no reverse lock out.

 

I've just learned to live with the gap lol

 

STM sells 5 speed boot for $42 if you want that neat look.

 

if anyone can conform this works please post but im sure the 5 speed boot is smaller then the 6 speed console opening

 

When you say console opening you mean that ring right?

 

what I'd do is match a DIY for removing both and see of the screws are in the same place and everything is similar. From what I'm seeing though it looks like the MR boot is wrapped in a wider diameter around the console.

May have to get a 5 speed console top.

 

I believe you need the 5 speed console. I just live with the gap, I prefer the MR console.

 

i have the same set up on my MR I installed a Works Short Throw Shifter and it doesn't look haft bad
